THE RETURN, (SEE "THE ROUNDHEAD'S PAROLE") - DRAWN BY SAMUEL READ, 1864, CREATOR: MASON JACKSON.

The Return, (see "The Roundhead's Parole") - drawn by Samuel Read, 1864. Illustration to a short story. 'The barges went heavily back to Chillington with the returning tide, not with Saxby and his men, and yet not empty, but each with a ghastly and groaning load - the dead, dying, and wounded Cavaliers whom Saxby and the garrison had laid low. A little after sunset a weary and straggling band...returned to the castle through the chestnut avenue to find the beacon flaring still. In the rear of this melancholy troop came the Chaplain. He leaned heavily on his stick, and now and then also supported himself by the arm of Wilfred the Broad, who walked beside him. The man kept stopping and looking at the Chaplain, as if he momentarily expected him to fall. He had been in the very thick of the fight, wearing armour that had concealed him, and had received a wound in the neck. But he had, though ceasing to fight, and while getting rid of his armour, declared it to be trifling, and refused to wait and return with the barges. He had not got half way across the courtyard, however, when he fell down in a faint'. From "Illustrated London News", 1864.

OLD CHRISTMAS, 1862. CREATOR: UNKNOWN.

Old Christmas, 1862. Lyrics by John George Watts, music by Thomas Murby. 'Fling wide the portals of the heart, Let fullest bliss abound, For December's frosty air The laughing bells resound. The stars are burning overhead, Their love-lit lamps divine, eighteen hundred years ago O'er Bethel they did shine. So Sorrow and Care, your presence we spare, For Christmas is with us once more. We'll greet the old fellow, So portly and mellow, And welcome him in at the door. Fling wide the portals of the heart; And every thought of ill That through the year hath stolen there Drive forth with earnest will. Let all the good and kind and true This season calls to birth, Throng in one glorious angel-group About your blazing hearth... Fling wide the portals of the heart, 0 Wealth, and where you find A needy fellow, drop your mite For love and humankind. Let hall and cottage, chief and churl, Quaff now the gen'rous cup That bright-eyed Gladness brims with wine, And Joy holds, tempting, up...Fling wide the portals of the heart, And young and old draw near, Exchanging smile for smile, perchance, Exchanging tear for tear: The tear, the sacred tear that flows When bosoms thrill with bliss. The tear that tells when lips are mute, How great our happiness'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862. Old Christmas, 1862. Creator: Unknown. (KEYSTONE/HERITAGE IMAGES/THE PRINT COLLECTOR)

LORD RIVERDALE'S REPENTANCE: THE LAST HOME OF THE RIVERDALES - DRAWN BY SAMUEL READ, 1862. CREATOR: W THOMAS.

Lord Riverdale's Repentance: the Last Home of the Riverdales - drawn by Samuel Read, 1862. Illustration to a short story by William J. Stewart. 'The pale wintry sunlight was streaming in through the open doorway of the old church...So they had laid her here, then, at her mother's feet...He remembered that when they sent to him and asked should she rest by her mother's side, he had answered them, angrily - no!...True, she had died, and young. But from no fault of his...But it was not to give the rein to thoughts like these, be sure, that John Lord Riverdale had travelled hither this wintry day to the last home of his lordly race...the wintry sunlight had gone, and the old church felt very damp and chill...The night closed in with strange and startling rapidity; the shadows of the old tombs and rare carved work were blotted out abruptly; the western windows, a few moments back warm with a mellow light, grew chilly grey...He had stood so long in that posture, leaning forward on his stick, that, when he essayed to move, his muscles were stiff and declined to perform their office...'.

LORD RIVERDALE'S REPENTANCE: GEORGE RESCUING HIS GRANDFATHER, DRAWN BY A. HUNT, 1862. CREATOR: MASON JACKSON.

Lord Riverdale's Repentance [by William J. Stewart]: George rescuing his grandfather, drawn by A. Hunt, 1862. 'That hand was nearer to him at that moment than he dreamt. The thought of George so filled his mind as for a moment to exclude all consideration of his danger. He was recalled to it by a crashing blow upon the window, shattering it. His time had come, then. He turned to meet his death. The window was flung up then, and not death, but George Cowper, with hope of life and rescue, leaped into the room. The old man fell back. "Good Heaven!" he cried, "you here?"..."If you will be calm, Sir," [George] said, "no life need be lost"...He led him to the window and bade him look out. Some yards off the old Lord saw a projecting ledge of roof, reached from below by other similar ledges, upon which were gathered figures watching them. To this spot there ran beneath the window a narrow sloping ledge, not a dozen inches wide, upon which there did not seem purchase for a goat, much less a human foot. But by that perilous path, clinging to the frail ivy boughs above him, George Cowper had come to his aid'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862.

BIRKETT FOSTER'S "PICTURES OF ENGLISH LANDSCAPE": THE STEPPING-STONES, 1862. CREATOR: DALZIEL BROTHERS.

Birkett Foster's "Pictures of English Landscape": the Stepping-stones, 1862. Among books recently published and plainly intended to sell as a "Christmas present" or "New-Year's gift" is the volume from which we have borrowed an Illustration, "Birket Foster's Pictures of English Landscape," engraved by the Brothers Dalziel, with Pictures in Words by Tom Taylor (Routledge and Co.). We have selected one of the best engravings of this book...It is entitled "The Stepping-stones;" and we subjoin Mr. Taylor's versified accompaniment: "Still broad'ning on with every rood. None may the brook o'erleap, Even when innocent of flood, It's summer shallows sleep. Answ'ring the whispers of the beech, With whisper'd ripple-tones, From wavelets that scarce midway reach The sun-warmed stepping-stones. Too shallow, if it willed, to drown, The babes that cross its play; Too clear to hide one pebble strewn Along its harmless way. Ah! youth of man, and youth of stream Who dreams, while smooth and clear The summer-shallowed waters gleam. The winter spate so near? When every rounded stepping-stone, Where babies fearless stood, To fierce desire a barrier grown. Serves but to chafe the flood".' From "Illustrated London News", 1862.

BALDWIN'S "AFRICAN HUNTING": NATIVE CHASED BY BUFFALO COW AND CALF, 1862. CREATOR: JOHANN BAPTIST ZWECKER.

Baldwin's "African Hunting": native chased by buffalo cow and calf, 1862. 'Among the most interesting and exciting books recently published is Mr. Baldwin's journal of his hunting in South Africa in various regions...inhabited by Boers and Kaffirs [offensive term for Africans]. The interest of the narrative is rather increased than diminished from the circumstance that part of the ground had been traversed by Dr. Livingstone. Mr. Baldwin penetrated twelve degrees north of Port Natal, and as far as the Falls of the Zambesi, being the second European who has reached that marvellous scenery since its discovery in 1855, and the first from the east coast...The author speaks in the highest terms of the colony of Natal, describing it as the garden of Africa. The book contains...a number of spirited wood-engravings by Mr. Zwecker...[one of which] we have selected...A Kaffir servant, who had wounded a cow buffalo, is seen scrambling up into a tree, tearing his legs badly in doing so, to avoid the animal, which, with its calf or heifer, charged him. Having managed to throw up his gun before him, he reloaded and shot them both, else they might have kept him there a couple of days or more...This very entertaining volume is published by Mr. Bentley'.

The Light of Other Days - from a painting by J. T. Lucas, 1864. 'Old Watchman, thou who watchest not, We smile on thy non-vigil now: Sleep on, nor dream, thou slumbrous sot, That roystering Bucks prepare a row. Clutch not in thought the Dandy's fee, Nor seek to stop the fiery Blood, Nor wake to find thy Box and thee Down in the London kennel's mud...Of many a boon we Britons owe To one whom all good Britons praise, 'Tis not the least that at a blow He quenched the Light of Other Days. A better guardian fills your place, We're glad to know you 've passed away: But keep a copy of your face To help our mirth on Christmas Day. S. B.'. From "Illustrated London News", 1864.

SHAKSPEARE'S SONGS AND SONNETS, ILLUSTRATED, 1862. CREATOR: UNKNOWN.

Sampson Low, Son, and Co. have just published an elegantly-bound edition, with illustrations by Mr. John Gilbert, of the songs and sonnets of Shakspeare - the beautiful lyrics scattered through the plays with which we are all familiar...It need scarcely be said that Mr. Gilbert's illustrations are, as usual, pleasing and generally fanciful...and that they are remarkable for graceful facility and beauty of execution. We give two samples...[one] illustrates Puck's song in "Midsummer Night's Dream": "Now the hungry lion roars, And the wolf behowls the moon; Whilst the heavy plowman snores, All with weary task foredone. Now the wasted brands do glow, Whilst the scritch-owl, scritching loud, Puts the wretch that lies in woe In remembrance of a shroud. Now it is the time of night, That the graves all gaping wide; Every one lets forth his sprite, In the churchway paths to glide; And we fairies, that do run By the triple Hecate's team, From the presence of the sun, Following darkness like a dream, Now are frolic; not a mouse Shall disturb this hallow'd house. I am sent, with broom before, To sweep the dust behind the door'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862. Shakspeare's Songs and Sonnets, illustrated, 1862. Creator: Unknown.

This book was worn by the Queen suspended by a chain from her girdle through the two rings which are at the top. The cover is of gold, ornamented with coloured enamel figures in full relief. In front is represented the Raising of the Serpent in the Wilderness, an emaciated figure in the foreground, another is praying...On the back is represented the Judgment of Solomon...The edges and back...are decorated with black enamels.

The late Walter Savage Landor, 1864. Engraving from a photograph by Mr. Herbert Watkins. 'Our readers may...look with some interest upon the portrait of a man of great originality and force of mind, who, having won a high rank in classical English literature, and taken his part in the battles of opinion for seventy years, died, the other day, at the great age of ninety, and left a name which will abide longer than those of some more facile and popular writers. He was born on the 30th of January, 1775, at Ipsley Court, Warwickshire; he died, on the 17th of September last, at Florence. Ten years ago, in anticipation of his own death, the poet composed three lines, which may perhaps serve for his epitaph: "Nature I loved, and next to Nature, Art; I warmed both hands before the fire of Life. It sinks, and I am ready to depart".' From "Illustrated London News", 1864. The late Walter Savage Landor, 1864. Creator: Unknown. (KEYSTONE/HERITAGE IMAGES/THE PRINT COLLECTOR)

"Beneath thy window, Sweetheart mine! I've watched since dawn of day, To greet thee as my Valentine And homage to thee pay; For thou art dearer to my heart Than all my tongue can say! The sun, just peeping o'er the hill, Smiles warmly on the sky; I long for such a smile from thee - A glance from thy bright eye - To drive the shadows from my heart And force my doubts to fly. Beneath thy lattice as I wait All nature slowly wakes; Far in the west retreating night Her dusky mantle shakes; Appear! and add to all the joy That rosy morning makes.Sweetheart! It needs but thy bright eyes To make the day complete; The changing colours of the dawn To me are not so sweet As those dear orbs of thine, which I Am waiting here to greet. Come forth, and let the blushing day Thy rival charms behold; Where thou art not the sun is dim, And all his rays are cold; Without thee all the world's a waste - A dark and dismal wold"'.
